High-Speed Counter Module Overview

The High-Speed Counter Module, Catalog Number 1746-HSCE is an SLC 500

family compatible device. It can be used with SLC 5/02 (and above)

processors.(1)

The module’s bidirectional counting ability allows it to detect movement in

either direction. In addition, x2 and x4 counting modes are provided to fully use

the capabilities of high-resolution quadrature encoders.

High-speed inputs from quadrature encoders and various high-speed switches are

supported. Accepting input pulse frequencies of up to 50k Hz allows precise

control of fast motions.

In addition to providing an Accumulated Counter, the module provides a Rate

Counter to determine Rate Measurement by indicating the pulse input frequency

in Hz. (Refer to the block diagram on the following page.) The Rate

Measurement is determined by accumulating input pulses over a fixed period of

time. You set the Rate Period to best match your application requirements.

Background Rate calculation is provided in Sequencer and Range Modes. This

operation accepts input rates up to 32,767 Hz. The dynamically configurable

Rate Period ranges from 10 ms to 2.55 seconds.

The module’s four current sink (open collector) outputs can be controlled from

one of two sources:

• the user program

•themodule

Control of the counter reset is configured through user-set parameters. The

counter can be reset from any combination of the Z input, Limit Switch input, or

Soft Reset control bits.

(1) The 1746-HSCE High-Speed Counter Module is not compatible with the 1747-ASB Remote I/O

Adapter Module.

Publication1746-5.16

Module operation is determined by selections made in the Setup and Control

Word (M0:e.1). Setting the Function Control bit to 1 triggers the module to start

the proper pulse counter, rate measurement, and output control functions. Many

parameters are dynamic and can be changed without disrupting counter

operation.

A block diagram of the module is shown below. Inputs from the terminal block

enter the diagram at the left, outputs to the terminal block exit at the right. M0

and Output file parameters from the SLC enter the logic blocks from the top.

Input file data to the SLC exit the logic blocks from the bottom.

Dip Switch and Jumper Locations

Two dip switches (SW1 and SW2) and one jumper (JW1) are located on the side

of the module.

• SW1 selects the type of input (single ended or differential).

• SW2 selects the output voltage range (4.5-10V dc or 10-30V dc).

• JW1 selects the filtering rate (300 µs or 10 ms) used to debounce the limit

switch input.

Default settings are shown below:

!ATTENTION: Use a small screwdriver to change dip switch

positions. Graphite from pencils will damage the switch.

SW2 Settings

Select an output voltage range that coincides with your supply voltage. The

selections are 4.5 - 10V dc or 10 - 30V dc.

SW1 Settings

Select an input connection, single-ended or differential.

It is possible to configure different inputs in different modes. For example, input

A (CHA) can be configured as differential and input Z (CHZ) can be configured

as single-ended.

!ATTENTION: All switches of SW2 must be ON or all switches

must be OFF. Permanent damage may result if some are ON and

some are OFF.

Operating in the 10-30V dc range with the switches set for the

4.5-10V dc range damages the module.

Installing the Module

Installation procedures for this module are the same as any other discrete I/O or

specialty module.

1. Align the full-size circuit board with the rack card guide. The first slot (slot

0) of the first rack is reserved for the CPU.

2. Slide the module into the rack until the top and bottom latches are latched.

To remove the module, press the releases at the top and bottom of the

module and slide it out.

Important:

Set the dip switches before installing the module.

!ATTENTION: Disconnect power before attempting to install,

remove, or wire the module.

Make sure your SLC power supply has adequate reserve current

capacity. The module requires 320 mA at 5V dc.
